  This error occurs when the system tries to access or display contact person address data for a business partner (such as a customer or vendor), but no address data exists for the contact person in the system.
  Common scenarios include:
  
  The contact person master data has not been maintained or created.
  The contact person exists but does not have an address assigned.
  The system is trying to retrieve contact person address data during sales order processing, delivery, billing, or other business transactions, but the relevant data is missing.
  
  
  When does it typically occur?
  
  During sales order creation or processing (VA01, VA02).
  When printing or displaying documents that require contact person address details.
  In customer master data maintenance or display.
  When using functions that require contact person details, such as correspondence or partner functions.
  
  
  Solution
